Ingredients

Scale

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup unsalted butter (melted)
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs (at room temperature)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup hot fudge sauce (store-bought or homemade)
Optional: ½ cup chopped walnuts or chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In a large bowl, whisk melted butter and sugar until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in vanilla.
Gradually mix dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined; avoid overmixing.
Pour half the batter into the prepared loaf pan and drizzle half of the hot fudge sauce over it. Add remaining batter and top with the rest of the fudge sauce; swirl with a knife for marbling.
Bake for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
Cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
